Hello Dashap.

Would you have a date of birth for Mary Ann Powell and John Jones please ?

I can see a couple in 1870 and 1880 living in Pennsylvania and who were both born in Wales. Mary Ann appears to be about 8 years older than John O Jones

Once again thank you for all your efforts.  All I know about Annie Powell is she supposedly went to the US in 1856 with her husband James Lewis and made her home in Poughkeepsie, New York and died April 15, 1914 and is buried in Freeland Pennsylvania. Annie was born about 1836 in Builth, Wales. I have found a James Lewis born 1834 in Wales with a wife Annie born 1838 Wales in the 1900 US Census living in Poughkeepsie when I looked on Family Search just now.  However that is the only census that comes up on the web here.  It looks very hopeful, but hard to confirm this is the right couple. There are no children listed only a boarder  David Williams, who was born in Ohio, but has Welsh parents.  James is 66 and Annie is 62 and there is a record saying they had no children.
Any ideas as to where to go from here very welcome.
Many thanks, Dash

I do know a little bit about Mary Ann Powell and John Jones.  They had three children.  John Henry Jones ,  James W Jones and Mary Ann Jones.
John Henry  born 1860 married Joan Davies born 1861. They went to US in 1893 with their children Samuel b 1883,  William H b 1885, and Albert b 1888.  They had at least one more child in Pennsylvania a daughter with a hard to read name on the census looks something like Inez born 1897 Penn.
 James W Jones born 1871 married Ellen A Morris b 1870.  They went to USA in 1886.  Their children all born in Penn. were Minnie b 1891, Adelaide b 1893, Arthur b 1896, Agnes who died aged 7 and Dorothy.
Mary Ann Jones b 1869 married Arthur Lewis born 1861. They went to USA in 1887.  They had at least 4 children James A Lewis born 1892 and Mary p Lewis born 1897, however I do not know the names of the remaining children.  They lived in the Freeland area I think.  Will need to go back to the 1901 census to check.
Hope this fills in a few gaps for you.  Thank you so much for going to all this trouble for me.  I'm sorry I didn't tell you more at the start.  Hope you can understand all this , I written it rather hurriedly .Dash.
